Hello.
I really love this game. Played for many hours and enjoyed almost every bit of it. The problem is that I constantly get freeze and the display driver stops working.
I have the latest Nvidia driver as of now (353.06). This happened on the previous version of both Witcher and nvidia driver.

I tried reinstalling the driver, but no luck. Tried closing GeForce Experience, but still won't help. It is really annoying and I have to save every couple of minutes in fear of crashing.

I think it is random, sometimes it happens in cutscenes, other times in inventory.
No mods are installed, pure vanilla.
Anyone else experiencing the same problem and/or know a fix? It really breaks the immersion and I can't enjoy the gameplay.

Thanks for your help.

Try running the game in a borderless window in lieu of full screen.

Strange thing is that the game often forces itself into borderless, although I like full screen better because of alt tab. But I will try that, hope it stops crashing.
Thanks for the reply!

Well there's several fixes in there actually. But yeah if none of them apply to you then guess not.
Seems like moving the install folder to my SSD might have fixed the problem. I haven't had any crashes since.
